I hate to say this, but I honestly don't care who we hire now

    I got caught up in the Gruden hype. I bit hard on the rumors and got my hopes up. Now it's like the hottest girl in school dumped me and I go home to mom and she says there's plenty of fish in the sea. Maybe so, mom. Maybe so. But it's gonna take me some time to heal from my emotional wounds, and that could take until like... Friday

    This may be the best example!! +1 for you. thumbsup

    Yeah, I get where you're coming from. It's kind of like test driving the Ferrari before you realize that you can only afford a Mustang. Still not a bad car, but it's not the Ferrari.....

    Not going to rip you OMG, i just guess we are different. I would love to see Gruden as much as anyone. He would bring passion and personality to the position. Im not going to lie, Golden and/or Fedora would be "disappointing"..but i'd get over it after a couple days and would be right behind whoever we hire come spring, i'll guarantee you that. Orange is in my blood, it's in my soul. I cant do anything about it at this stage of my life, and lord knows I have fought it, but no longer. I am a raging, passionate, temperamental, idiotic vol fan..and you know what, Im proud of it. If we win 12 games a year and a NC, i will celebrate like no one else. If we lose every game and become the laughingstock of the SEC I'll bang my head against the wall like everyone else, but either way..I am going to root and cheer like heck for my home state school. Always have, and always will. VFL aint just a motto man, it's words to live by. It's just that simple.

    +1 man! I feel ya man. Thats what got the program where it is. Orange just aint in their blood anymore. I am talking about the coaches, players, and fans (the fans who will not cheer if we dont hire such and such coach). Got to do something and I have no idea what. This is what i do know tho, I will support the University thru every bad hire and bad game until we get it right and they will get right, eventually!

  • Imagining Charlie Strong popping up on the Jumbotron about to run out of the tunnel with a Power T on his chest gets me pumped. Gruden is the glamour hire, but part of me thinks Strong might be better long term.
